I went to school for 3 years to learn animation, failed school because of burn-out and now, 3 years later, I'm back at the beginning, trying to re-learn everything almost from scratch. Thank you for this video, it made me take some actual time to practice and try again! 😄
I pushed hard to get the degree in 3d animation visual effects and failed to get a good break into the industry. Burned out. Left for IT work. 10yrs later. Made really good money but started feeling pull back towards animation. I have friends who are interested in animation too so the last couple years we've been playing with different animations styles and making stuff. Honestly having the artistic freedom made it appetizing again.
I love doing animations. My channel is a challenge channel but I can’t help but incorporating animations into my videos. It does take an incredible amount of work though
Kudos to him for actually saying how long the process was. As a beginner, everything takes ages to go through, and it's nice to see someone also having trouble with it for a change.
As someone whos always liked picking up new skills and took the position that “a jack of all trades” is more admirable than a master of one, its very obvious that you have an excellent mentality when it comes to picking up new skills and applying the proper methods in learning them. You know that learning a new hobby isnt just the fun you’re having but learning it correctly so you can have even more fun once you’ve established the basics. Brilliant video, amazing improvement and admirable as hell. Such a good job
Yeah, the human being developed to be capable of doing that. I know basic programming, modelling, animating, computation, engineering, mechatronics, physiology, psychology, astrophysics, electronics, 4 languages, a bit of metereology, the mechanisms of a vehicle and how to employ the use of firearms. You can say some of these things are useless, but they're just slots on the inventory of knowledge. Most of them i've learned out of pure curiosity, and went a bit deep into what I knew. Your memory haves a estimated "storage" limit, that's when the neurons cant absorb anymore complex or intricate information, but it's extremely unlikely and nearly impossible to cross that limit, but as long as your mind still in the state then make some good use of it. Accumulation of information will eventually turn into general knowledge. Dont let blockouts inhibit you from reaching the apex of yourself. The key to consume all of this content and archive it mentally from memory is being genuinely interested and focused on what you learn, to process each tidbit of information consciously and assure you know it before proceeding to the next part. Hell, Galileo Galilei was a polymate and had knowledge on several different academic topics.
Watched millions of videos by pro animators and no one ever mentioned these tips and how things were done ...they just simply show the drawing process and thats it...this video really helped and made it look much easier ..maybe cuz begginers understand begginers' problems so they can help better :)
Ive always wanted to learn how to draw and animate and over the past few years ive picked up some basic skills from each area. My drawing is mega shakey though, and even though i understand a lot about the animating process, not being able to draw very obviously impedes the process. These videos honestly shocked me, because it showed me that it doesnt take weeks, months, years to learn how to draw, it just takes dedication and an open mind. Ive been practicing drawing as of late already, but this has inspired me to work at it a lot more, thank you for these crazy videos
every skill takes time when starting out ,I remember how long it used to me to draw a figure/person and how frustrated I got,I still get a bit annoyed but when I look back at my old drawings I can see a huge inlmprovement and start to feel a lot better
@@andreimanole346 well it depends what you are doing. Stickman animations are easy. So what kind of animation i just tend to use my oc in a random backround doing something those animations are 1-3 seconds long
Wow the ending was amazing!! Thank you so much for sharing your beginner animation experience! I think all it takes is patience, effort and perseverance to stoop to that artistic level.
Great video on learning to animate without experience! As someone who's always been interested in animation but never knew where to start, this video was super helpful. I love how you broke down the process step-by-step and provided useful tips throughout. Your passion for animation really shines through and it's inspiring to see how much can be achieved with dedication and hard work. Keep up the great content!
Sick dude this has always been my dream job and I thought i could never do it because It was so difficult but this really opened my eyes up and made me get started! thank you for inspiring me and educating me much love!
remember good friend, i before e, except after c though some common exceptions are: species, science, sufficient. ei not after c: seize, vein, weird, their, feisty, and foreign
I got inspired this week and got some uh old versions of software to use and pulled out a Huion tablet from a bin. I never used it with said softwares before and it works soooo well!! I used to animate when I was in middle school and I think I'm gonna take it up again now. I always have funny poster or meme ideas and it'll be fun to actually start making things instead of having ideas and then forgetting. I think overall I just want to keep making stuff. Learn more audio production, some photoshop, some Resolve etc. In tandem with IT school I'll be a mofo in a few years and in a better position to start building side clients doing odds and ends.
Im an animator since early 2021 and i went in without experience or even practice. I made my first animation within just 3 hours and then made another. Currently there's a massive difference with my early works and to what i put out today
482th subscriber! Now, i believe, i can draw and animate too! Thank you for encouraging noobs 😁 You're awesome! Keep up the good work ❤️😍 Love from Bangladesh 🇧🇩❤️
Hey man, awesome video! I actually already know how to animate but was curious to see what you would do. It's impressive how much valuable info you managed to fit in a short video, but I'll definitely be recommending this to other newbie animators in the future. But even beyond the animation itself, your personality and the style of your video was awesome, and I can definitely see you blowing up on here someday. Best of luck to you man, keep it up!
I’m trying to get my animation degree even tho I am still new to art my friends at I keep improving on my sketching skills. So this video really did help after I saw a shirt on RUclips saying how competitive this career is. This actually helped me calm down and helped me think on the steps I needed to take in order to get to my goal. And yea it will be painstaking to get every detail but you showed that it’s worth it! Thank you so much for making this video!
LETS MAKE YOU FAMOUS BRO in all honesty tho; i have such a hard time learning and remembering all of that and always just wanna do it, problem is that just doing it when its photoshop or whatever is kinda impossible with all the stuff u have to know before. Seeing ur approach of just hammering out 14 hours of animating makes me so motivated to do stuff. I saved the videos for when i have less uni things to do and can focus on learning something new, thank you so much for this man.
Your comment made my day. Thank you so much! It all starts out with the want to discover that curiosity inside of you to want to learn new things. The approach I take is if I want to reach a goal, I start from the goal and look at the steps backwards. Now just follow the steps going forward and you’re golden. I wish you the best!
@@MichaelBSam Im glad man! Keep going with these banger videos! Ohh that makes so much sense, looking at the goal first kinda removes all the anxiety in starting out in the first place. Thank you!
I've been trying to find basic steps on animation! This is *exactly* what I was looking for! That you so much, I'll follow these steps and hopefully it'll make me better! Thank you!
jeeezzz i always wanted to learn how to animate but it looked like a lot of work- now you confirmed it is a lot of work lol great video loved how concise it was!
the only video on this topic that i can say from my memory which is - to the point - shows the results - speaks truth - short - only important things - and most importantly - non-narcissistic (no personal rant), and good quality obviously
Woah you know whats interesting about this.. is how informative this is- what app, settings, what to do, tips this is the most helpful animating tutorial I’ve ever seen.
I am craving for more animation videos, T_T This has been a great help no cap. I am using Animate right now and I want to be better and this hits the spot. hoping for more videos like this.
ive always wanted to animate. ive been doing so since 2015 but have gotten almost nowhere because im not fully understanding and im self taught. i recently revisited the idea because i want to make some of my ideas into a reality. listening to songs and thinking of things with certain characters or even my own, i want it to be REAL. so im relearning! ty for this, it gives me motivation.
this man makes animating so easy, and most people who know animation know that if you want good animation, you will really get tired doing it, I mean he really did the last scene in 14 HOURS, good job BTW
Going to be honest I'll be pretty sad if your channel doesn't take off soon, you make content Equal to that of a channel with 5 million subscribers. I was amazed when I saw how few subscribers you had. I believe without a doubt you could rival youtubers such as Ryan Trahan.
lol I always wanted to be an animator. I just bought a tablet too and started animating. I recommend everyone start with a bouncing ball to learn sqaush and stretch and timing. I turned my bouncing ball into a bird, and it's really cute. can't wait to try character rigging. Thanks for the video
Drawing is actually a fundamentally different skill than animation! You don't need to learn to draw at all. Animation is the skill of movement where drawing is the skill of illustration
I quit drawing after high-school. It's been a long time since and I began to draw. My son loves drawing now and I always been wanting to understand how to fully animate. I'm fascinated
Learning how to animate is like trying to teach a goldfish to tap dance-it's wobbly at first, but with enough patience and a bit of magic, you'll soon have a dancing masterpiece!
3 years ago I broke most of the bones in my hand, I decided to try animating as a type of hand therapy. Now its what I want to do for a living. keep practicing and learning new things everyone!!!
Ive wanted to animate and i dont know how to draw so i saw your other video and just saw this one. grind starts now. My goal is to eventually animate an entire episode of jojos part 7 by myself seeing how long only lip syncing took you and how i have no experience in anything i have my work cut out for me but im confident that ill be able to no matter how long it takes
Another guide ive seen for Flag animation thanks to Felix Colgrave is to have a guide of two circles moving across parallel horizontal paths and use that to guide where you place the distortion in the flag
I went to school for 3 years to learn animation, failed school because of burn-out and now, 3 years later, I'm back at the beginning, trying to re-learn everything almost from scratch. Thank you for this video, it made me take some actual time to practice and try again! 😄
I was in the same boat 😭. Everyone who is going through the same thing dont worry your not alone ! We got this
I don't have any experience too, but one of my dream is to make mini films
I pushed hard to get the degree in 3d animation visual effects and failed to get a good break into the industry. Burned out. Left for IT work. 10yrs later. Made really good money but started feeling pull back towards animation.

@Kaitlrnando no you don't lmao
I’m simply amazed this time. I don’t want to animate but I like seeing the process.

Don't ever attempt to make an animation for a school project, 1 day before the deadline, with no experience in animation.
Its always entertaining to see beginners complain on how much time it takes, it almost never gets old.
So true😂
I wonder if it gets better...
every skill takes time when starting out ,I remember how long it used to me to draw a figure/person and how frustrated I got,I still get a bit annoyed but when I look back at my old drawings I can see a huge inlmprovement and start to feel a lot better
True. I don't do animations but only some. It takes like 30 minutes to do just a 3 SECOND animation
@@Mountain_2 I always like to rush things, took me 30 mins to make 17 seconds animation!
@@andreimanole346 well it depends what you are doing. Stickman animations are easy. So what kind of animation i just tend to use my oc in a random backround doing something those animations are 1-3 seconds long
